IU should play like that D3 team that shoots 100+3s/game! No D needed to play, just jack 3’s up every time down the court! Whoever hits the most, wins! 🤔
For Ss and Gs:
RAF Commander A.T. Harris 1942 in a leaflet dropped all over Germany:
RANSLATION OF G.41, EINE BOTSCHAFT DES OBERBEFEHLSHABERS…

A MESSAGE FROM THE COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF OF THE BRITISH
BOMBERS TO THE GERMAN PEOPLE.
As Commander-in-Chief of the British bombing aircraft raiding Germany I have
decided to send this message to the German people.
We in Britain know quite enough about air raids! For ten months your Luftwaffe
has bombed us. First you bombed us by day. When we made this impossible,
they came by night. Then you had a big fleet of bombers. Your airmen fought
well. They bombed London for 92 nights running. They made heavy raids on
Coventry, Plymouth, Liverpool and other British cities. They did a lot of damage.
Forty-three thousand British men, women, and children lost their lives. Many of
our most cherished historical buildings were destroyed.
You thought, and Goering promised you, that you would be safe from bombs,
and indeed, during all that time we could only send over a small number of
aircraft in return. But now it is just the other way. Now you send only a few
aircraft against us, and we are bombing Germany heavily.
Why are we doing so? It is not revenge - though we do not forget Warsaw,
Belgrade, Rotterdam, London, Plymouth and Coventry. We are bombing
Germany, city by city, and ever more terribly in order to make it impossible for
you to go on with the war. That is our object. We shall pursue it remorselessly.
City by city: Lubeck, Rostock, Cologne, Emden, Bremen, Wilhelmshaven,
Duisburg, Hamburg - and the list will grow longer and longer.
Let the Nazis drag you down to disaster with them if you will. That is for you to decide.
In fine weather we bomb you by night. Already one thousand bombers go to one
town, like Cologne, and destroy a third of it in an hourʹs bombing. We know, we
have the photographs. In cloudy weather we bomb your factories and shipyards
by day. We have done that as far as Danzig. We are coming by day and by night.
No part of the Reich is safe....
Soon we shall be coming every night and every day, rain, blow or snow - we and
the Americans. I have just spent eight months in America, so I know exactly
what is coming. We are going to scourge the Third Reich from end to end, if you
make it necessary for us to do so. You cannot stop it, and you know it.
You have no chance."
Don't say it... The last thing we need is another jinxed career before he ever steps foot on the court....
I already said it and he’s stepped on tons of courts and proved how good a shooter he is.
Question for the crowd: Would you pay to attend a game of H-O-R-S-E among these guys?
1 thing that stands out, unlike Goode and Kopp, he's not just a catch and shoot. Shoots and scores off the bounce, attacks the rim on hard close outs, has some mid game.

What in God’s name is DeVries doing? I can’t believe we missed on Wilkerson. Can this guy not recruit…wait…never mind
Yep. I did like Goode more than Koop tho. Like you said. Those three on the floor together would be quite the change of pace from what we’ve seen. Really hope Goode comes back. Would be a tremendous 6th man.
So it was a complete housecleaning. Probably only kept Sisley because he hasn’t actually played here yet.
Personally I dont believe that Goode wouldn’t be welcomed by DeVries if he got a waiver. The silence on the matter, logically, would be because as of now it’s not a decision for either of them.
Me too. Goode could shoot off the cut, Kopp needed to stand still.
yep, but I'm not sure why Goode isn't wanted, Indiana kid Indiana family, I think Devries made a mistake on him or maybe he thinks there is no way he will get a waiver. didn't Luke come back at the end of the season in question? that usually doesn't bode well.
You think the NCAA wants another fight? I think they already let other sports second half type come back. Different times.
1 thing? I've watched him only a couple times, but there is nothing about his game that reminds me of anything Goode or Kopp did.
I really like that he can score off the bounce in the mid-range. A very underrated skill these days.
Nope everybody wasn’t. Quite a few people still thought we had him, even more said 50/50. Trilly for one stuck with his IU prediction. I think it was mainly Kentucky people who thought they had him.
Kurt has supreme confidence it seems here. Would like some sort of back up info, cuz I like Ol Luke
Welcome to Bloomington Lamar Wilkerson. Kid should be a gamer and at least be fun to watch with Tucker even if games aren't going our way. This has me back on track with DeVries. Losing out on Conwell, Dix, and Bidunga (especially after hiring Adams) had me questioning what wasn't landing with recruits and worrying how common it would be. There's up to 10 roster spots to fill, need some athletes and guys with eligibility.
